  • Increases photosynthesis

How Mycorrhizae and Rhizobium Work

Root Penetration

The filaments of mycorrhizal fungi, called hyphae, penetrate the roots, creating an internal network of vesicles and arbuscules for nutrient exchange.

Expansion of Absorption Area

Mycorrhizae increase the area of nutrient and water absorption up to 100 times thanks to their vast network of external hyphae.
This vast network acts as a second root system, providing access to more phosphorus, an essential nutrient for energy and plant growth.

Nodule Formation

Meanwhile, the root hairs capture the beneficial rhizobium bacteria, leading to the formation of nodules which act as factories for the production and transfer of nitrogen into a form that the plant can use for protein production. 

Tripartite: Mutually Beneficial Relationship

In exchange for sugars supplied by the plant, the rhizobium fixes the atmospheric nitrogen required for legume growth, and the mycorrhizae supply more phosphorus to the rhizobium.

 

Key Benefits of Mycorrhizae and Rhizobium for Crops

Curious to see how AGTIV® THRIVE™ can make a difference in your crops? This technology, featuring a combination of mycorrhizae and rhizobium enhances water and nutrient assimilation for improved phosphorus absorption, increased nodulation and amplifies photosynthesis and productivity. Experience enhanced legume productivity, increased pod formation and fill, greater nodule development with heathlier plants, accelerated row closure, expanded root systems, and enhanced branching. For you, this means improved crop yield, quality, and profitability with ease.
